About Bahamas

Newcomers to the Bahamas quickly realize that they have stumbled upon not one, but many extraordinary destinations.

The archipelago of the Bahamas lies just 50 miles of the coast of Florida and consists of more than 700 unique and magnificent islands. The resplendent turquoise waters that surround these islands are truly remarkable – offering infinite hues of shimmering blues and greens. While the islands themselves are skirted with endless stretches of powdery white beaches.

Of the 700 islands in the Bahamas, only about 25 are populated – each having its own unique ambiance, architecture and people. This diversity allows the Bahamas to offer something for everyone. The cosmopolitan capital city of Nassau is located on the island of New Providence, which is connected by a short bridge to Paradise Island. This chic area is part international glamour, part idyllic island ease. Visitors and residents enjoy restaurants by world-famous chefs, brand name shopping and abundant nightlife. Sport-fishermen and boaters are often drawn to Abaco, as the surrounding waters are teaming with game fish and the shorelines are populated with “barefoot” bars and casual restaurants.

The Bahamas boasts 10 spectacular golf courses that can be played year round and have been designed by names like Jack Nickalaus, Ernie Els, Tom Weiskopf and Greg Norman.

The Bahamas boasts the third highest GDP per capita and the longest uninterrupted democracy in the Western Hemisphere. These factors, combined with the country’s neutral tax laws and magnificent climate have attracted investors from around the globe. The real estate market continues to grow and the Government welcomes foreign buyers from all destinations. The Global Property Guide has ranked the Bahamas as the number 10 destination in the world for ‘buying properties to let’ and has given it 4 stars for its long-term outlook for property investment returns.

The Bahamas offers it all, catering to all lifestyles and demographics, which of course has birthed the phrase “It’s Better in The Bahamas".
